🔧 Installation

$3

Install globally via NPM:

`bash
npm install -g supabase-coolify-mcp-server
`

Or use directly with npx (no installation needed):

`bash
npx supabase-coolify-mcp-server
`

Package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/supabase-coolify-mcp-server

$3

Clone and build from GitHub:

`bash
git clone https://github.com/dj-pearson/supabase-coolify-mcp-server.git
cd supabase-coolify-mcp-server
npm install
npm run build
`

⚙️ Configuration

$3

Create a .env file or set the following environment variables:

`env


Required: Coolify Configuration

COOLIFY_API_URL=http://localhost:8000
COOLIFY_API_TOKEN=your-coolify-api-token-here

Required: Supabase Configuration

SUPABASE_URL=https://your-supabase-instance.example.com
SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY=your-supabase-service-role-key

Optional: Coolify Team

COOLIFY_TEAM_ID=optional-team-id

Optional: Supabase Additional Config

SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=your-supabase-anon-key
SUPABASE_PROJECT_ID=your-project-id
SUPABASE_PROJECT_REF=your-project-ref
SUPABASE_FUNCTIONS_URL=https://your-supabase-instance.example.com/functions/v1

Optional: Direct Database Access

SUPABASE_DB_HOST=localhost
SUPABASE_DB_PORT=5432
SUPABASE_DB_NAME=postgres
SUPABASE_DB_USER=postgres
SUPABASE_DB_PASSWORD=your-db-password
`

$3

#### Coolify API Token

1. Log into your Coolify instance
2. Navigate to "Keys & Tokens" > "API tokens"
3. Click "Create New Token"
4. Select permissions (recommended: * for full access)
5. Copy the generated token

#### Supabase Service Role Key

For self-hosted Supabase:

1. Log into your Supabase dashboard
2. Go to Settings > API
3. Copy the service_role key (keep this secure!)

Or from your Supabase deployment environment variables:
`bash
echo $SERVICE_ROLE_KEY
`

🎯 Usage

$3

The MCP server requires environment variables to connect to Coolify and Supabase.

Recommended Setup (Works for Everyone):

Add environment variables directly to your MCP configuration:

`json
{
"mcpServers": {
"supabase-coolify": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "supabase-coolify-mcp-server"],
"env": {
"COOLIFY_API_URL": "http://your-coolify-url:8000",
"COOLIFY_API_TOKEN": "your-actual-token",
"SUPABASE_URL": "https://your-supabase-url.com",
"SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY": "your-actual-service-role-key"
}
}
}
}
`

Replace the placeholder values with your actual credentials!

---

$3

The server supports three methods for providing environment variables (in priority order):

1. MCP Config env section ⭐ RECOMMENDED - Works for everyone, self-contained
2. System environment variables - For advanced users who want credentials outside config
3. .env file with wrapper script - For local development only (not scalable)

For detailed setup instructions for each method, see: MCP_CONFIGURATION.md

Common Mistake: ❌ Leaving placeholder values like https://your-supabase-instance.example.com
Solution: ✅ Replace ALL placeholders with your actual URLs and credentials!

---

$3

📚 MCP Resources

The server exposes these resources for MCP clients:

- supabase://migrations - All database migrations
- supabase://edge-functions - All edge functions
- supabase://storage-buckets - All storage buckets
- supabase://auth-config - Authentication configuration
- supabase://health - Service health status
- coolify://applications - All Coolify applications
- coolify://services - All Coolify services
- coolify://databases - All Coolify databases

🔒 Security Best Practices

1. Never commit API tokens to version control
2. Use environment variables for sensitive data
3. Restrict API token permissions to minimum required
4. Rotate tokens regularly
5. Use service role key only on secure servers
6. Enable JWT verification for edge functions
7. Validate all inputs (automatic with Zod schemas)
8. Verify setup before production deployments
9. Set appropriate file permissions on configuration files:

`bash
chmod 600 ~/.env
chmod 600 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
`

🧪 Testing & Verification

$3


`bash

Run type checking

npm run typecheck

Run linter

npm run lint

Build project

npm run build
`

$3

After starting the server, verify everything is working:

`bash


Start the server

npm start

Then ask Claude:

"Run verify_setup to check if everything is configured correctly"
`

See docs/VERIFICATION.md for complete verification guide.

🔍 Diagnostics & Testing

Before reporting issues or if you're having connection problems, use the built-in diagnostic tool:

$3

Run the automated diagnostic tool to check your setup:

`bash


Using npm

npm run diagnose

Or on Windows

.\diagnose.ps1

Or on Linux/Mac

./diagnose.sh
`

The diagnostic tool will automatically check:
- ✅ .env file existence and configuration
- ✅ Required environment variables
- ✅ Coolify API connection and authentication
- ✅ Supabase connection and authentication
- ✅ All Supabase services health
- ✅ Network connectivity

$3

`
🟢 ALL CHECKS PASSED - MCP Server should work correctly

✅ Passed: 10
❌ Failed: 0
⚠️ Warnings: 0
`

$3

#### Missing .env File
`bash
❌ .env file NOT found!
`
Fix: cp env.example .env then edit with your credentials

#### Placeholder Values
`bash
❌ ENV: COOLIFY_API_TOKEN: Contains placeholder value
`
Fix: Replace your-coolify-api-token-here with actual token from Coolify Dashboard → Keys & Tokens

#### Wrong Supabase Key
`bash
❌ Supabase Authentication: Invalid service role key
`
Fix: Make sure you're using the service_role key, NOT the anon key!
Get it from: Supabase Dashboard → Settings → API → service_role key

#### Connection Failed
`bash
❌ Coolify Connection: ECONNREFUSED
`
Fix: Verify Coolify is running and accessible at the configured URL

$3

Coolify API Token:
1. Coolify Dashboard → Profile → Keys & Tokens → API Tokens
2. Click "Create New Token"
3. Copy the token (you won't see it again!)
4. Add to .env as COOLIFY_API_TOKEN

Supabase Service Role Key:
- Supabase Cloud: Dashboard → Settings → API → Copy service_role key
- Self-hosted: Check Coolify deployment environment variables for SERVICE_ROLE_KEY

🐛 Troubleshooting

$3

#### 1. Missing Environment Variables

Error: Missing required environment variables: COOLIFY_API_URL, COOLIFY_API_TOKEN

Solution: Ensure all required environment variables are set. Check your .env file or Claude Desktop configuration.

#### 2. Connection Failed

Error: Failed to connect to Coolify API

Solution:
- Verify Coolify instance is running
- Check API URL is correct (include http:// or https://)
- Ensure API token has proper permissions
- Check network connectivity

#### 3. Authentication Failed

Error: Unauthorized or 401

Solution:
- Verify API tokens are correct
- Check token hasn't expired
- Ensure token has required permissions

#### 4. MCP Server Not Appearing

Solution:
- Restart Claude Desktop
- Check configuration file path is correct for your OS
- Verify JSON syntax in configuration
- Check server logs for errors

$3

Run with debug output:

`bash
DEBUG=* npm start
`
